Building on the work of games theorists and virtual world designers, this paper proposes a framework for understanding the real-virtual dichotomy in terms of a series of five fram...
Remote sensing applications often concern very large volumes of spatio-temporal data, the emerging Grid computing technologies bring an effective solution to this problem. The Open...
Data access prediction has been proposed as a mechanism to overcome latency lag, and more recently as a means of conserving energy in mobile systems. We present a fully adaptive p...
